Essentials: Machines, Creativity & Love | Dr. Lex Fridman

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode my guest is Lex Fridman, PhD (‪@lexfridman‬), a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), an expert in robotics and host of the Lex Fridman Podcast.

We discuss the development of artificial intelligence through machine learning, deep learning and self-supervised techniques. We also examine the growing significance of interactions between humans and robots, including their potential for companionship and emotional connection. This episode explores how AI is shifting from a technical tool into something that could reshape human relationships, emotions and society.
